Simple Green! Let it sit awhile, then do it again. Clean it enough so that a real bore cleaner will work. Then switch to it and save a lot of money.

I tried Simple Green with my MZ and I can tell you one thing about using it ...


DO NOT LET IT SIT IN A BORE OVERNIGHT !!!

It will rust.

Regarding the electrical device, I have everything I need to build one. Does the electrode get the positive side and the barrel gets the negative side?

Current flows from negative to positive.

That's it. Ground on gun.

I don't remember which. I have a good friend who's an elec. engineer and he just happened to be around when I did it.

If I remember correctly,...if it's hooked up backwards you can end up plating your rifle barrel.

So do some research,....then again, he might have just been messing with me....

I have an RCBS electronic bore cleaner on the shelf. I used it twice......about fifteen years ago.

Sweet's 7.62, JB bore paste, and a little Hoppe's #9 to coat the bore when done have obsoleted the electronic unit.
